+## The Core Promise
+
+QuantDinger gives you something most trading tools do not:
+
+- **one stack instead of five** for research, strategy code, backtests, execution, alerts, and operations
+- **AI that sits inside the workflow**, not beside it
+- **Python flexibility without losing product UX**
+- **private deployment without giving up growth features**
+
+## QuantDinger vs Patchwork Setups
+
+| Typical Setup | QuantDinger |
+|---------------|-------------|
+| AI chat tool disconnected from real strategy workflows | AI analysis, AI code generation, backtest feedback, and execution workflows live in one product |
+| Separate charting app, Python scripts, bot runner, and notification stack | One deployable platform for charting, strategy logic, runtime services, and alerts |
+| Hosted SaaS with limited control over credentials and alpha | Self-hosted architecture with your own infra, keys, and operational data |
+| Research tools with no operator layer | Multi-user roles, billing, credits, admin controls, and deployment-ready configuration |

 That combination is the core difference.
 
+## Why It Converts Better Than a Typical Trading Tool
+
+- **For traders**: it shortens the path from idea to execution.
+- **For quants**: it keeps Python and strategy control front and center.
+- **For operators**: it adds the parts most open-source trading projects skip, including users, billing, roles, and deployability.
+- **For AI-first workflows**: it turns analysis into something actionable, reviewable, and eventually automatable.

+## FAQ
+
+### Is QuantDinger really self-hosted?
+
+Yes. The default deployment model is your own Docker Compose stack with your own database, Redis instance, credentials, and environment configuration.
+
+### Is QuantDinger only for crypto trading?
+
+No. Crypto is a major focus, but the platform also includes IBKR workflows for US stocks, MT5 workflows for forex, and Polymarket research support.
+
+### Can I write strategies directly in Python?
+
+Yes. QuantDinger supports both dataframe-style `IndicatorStrategy` development and event-driven `ScriptStrategy` development. You can also use AI to generate a starting point and then edit it yourself.
+
+### Is this a research tool or a live trading platform?
+
+It is both. QuantDinger is built to connect AI research, charting, strategy development, backtesting, quick trade flows, and live execution operations in one system.
+
+### Can I use QuantDinger commercially?
+
+The backend is licensed under Apache 2.0. The frontend source has a separate source-available license. Commercial use is supported, but you should review the licensing terms in this repository and contact the project for frontend/commercial authorization if needed.

+## 常见问题
+
+### QuantDinger 真的是可自托管的吗？
+
+是的。默认部署方式就是你自己的 Docker Compose 栈，数据库、Redis、环境变量、API 凭证和业务数据都由你自己控制。
+
+### QuantDinger 只适合做加密货币吗？
+
+不是。加密货币是核心场景之一，但平台也支持 IBKR 的美股链路、MT5 的外汇链路，以及 Polymarket 的研究型分析工作流。
+
+### 我可以直接写 Python 策略吗？
+
+可以。QuantDinger 同时支持 dataframe 风格的 `IndicatorStrategy` 和事件驱动的 `ScriptStrategy`。你也可以先让 AI 生成初稿，再自己继续改。
+
+### 它到底是研究工具还是实盘交易平台？
+
+两者都是。QuantDinger 想打通的是 AI 研究、图表、策略开发、回测、快速交易和实盘运营，而不是只做其中某一段。
+
+### 可以商用吗？
+
+后端采用 Apache 2.0，前端源码采用单独的 source-available 授权。可以支持商业化，但你需要仔细阅读仓库内的授权说明；如果涉及前端源码、品牌或商业授权，建议直接联系项目方。
